FrostCollar: Are there any plans to introduce the UrbanMech as a full mech and not just as the best bobblehead that you can put on your dashboard?

A: <redacted>

You make me sad.

Never cared for the UrbanMech. Can never find the little footpedal that opens the lid.

i know it's *the thing* to want an urbie...

but it's a pile of ******* trash (in this game).

i'd rather they (PGI) spent time working on actual useful mechs

Well it would certainly not be a pay to win mech!

I feel like the urbie suffers from a major case of The Gomlich Effect...

Wait until it comes out with ECM++, then everyone will think this is an overpowered piece of trash.

Accidentally dropped in an Urbanmech on Alpine today (Spider-7K with Gauss Rifle). Scored 5/9 hits and kept snipers off the mountain top. Survived and won the match.
Not a lot of damage, but it was in the right place, right time.

Urbanmechs are cool and all, but I'm much more excited about the Firestarter.

The Biggest problem with it coming into game aside from it being wasted drop space on some maps is this, It uses a engine with a rating of 60, and the lowest currently in the game is 100.

I hate to say it, but a 30 ton mech with a top speed of 32kph is going to suck, the AC-10 just wont help in this game I feel.

However, if engine ratings lower than 100 come into the game, i'd say its coming heh.

The Clan version however is a bit more viable, with a much faster speed, a UAC-10 and a ER-SL, but then I wouldn't expect to see that for a long, long time.

this post is a waste of time and space imo URBANMECH not coming for a loooooooong time, a light with lower speeds than stalkers and atlas has no place in here, where running 113 in a light is a bit slow and 500+ armor is a bit low for an assault.
so all in all i dont think urbanmech fits the current meta.
